Bath repair at your home in Lâleston
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We are often asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and damage beneath the taps, in cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Generally one visit, start to finish

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A steel bath rusted through

Materials we work on in Lâleston
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Common questions in Lâleston
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Lâleston and the rest of Bridgend. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A hole punched through by something heavy

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
For anyone letting property in or around Lâleston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
